Cascadia’s automotive aftermarket group has deep transactional experience across the full spectrum of aftermarket sectors, positioning the team to be uniquely qualified to develop compelling investment theses, understand key issues to address and execute transactions for aftermarket companies. Our group works with numerous owners of aftermarket businesses, of which many are members of SEMA (Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association), an association for the $31 billion Automotive Aftermarket industry with some 6,800 member companies.

Recent notable transactions include representing the sale of three long time SEMA member companies that are fixtures within the industry. These transactions include the sale of Pilot Automotive, a leading distributor of aftermarket accessories, parts and electronics, to Narrow Gauge Capital; the sale of Bully Dog Technologies to SCT, a marquee transaction in the aftermarket tuning software industry; and the sale of Rosen Electronics, a pioneer manufacturer of rear seat entertainment systems, to Audax Private Equity.
